Managing the water and
energy challenge at a national
scale: The U.S. perspective
Kelly A. Kryc
Water and Power Advisor
U.S. Department of State
U.S. Water Rights Policy
Water considered a common resource in the United States – No national policy
Two systems of water law:
1. Prior Appropriation doctrine in western States – “first in time, first in right”
• Reflects scarcity of water
• Rigid in allocating new users water
2. Riparian doctrine in the eastern States – water belongs to the land owner for
reasonable use
• Reflects abundance of water
• Vague, no means to protect certain uses
The Energy-Water Nexus in the U.S.
Energy-Water Nexus Policy Options
 Get data. We need to understand better the problem, the
connections, and the impacts by generating, using, and openly
sharing improved sources of data.

 Deploy technology. We can implement existing, innovative, offthe-shelf technologies that promote energy and water efficiency,
use non-traditional sources of water for energy production and
generation, or create water and energy from waste.

 Work together. Energy and water decision-makers must work

together to ensure that decisions made by one sector don’t impact
the other. We can help by strengthening institutions and
establishing mechanisms for joint planning and development
across sectors.

 Use incentives. Incentives are an effective tool to encourage
conservation of water and energy. We can start working to create
policy and regulatory frameworks that strengthen local capacity
and enable businesses to serve as a catalyst for change.
WRI’s Aqueduct
• Aqueduct’s Water Risk Atlas provides information on key water supply and
demand hotspots and enables decision-making around key resources
• Example of business and government partnerships using data to address nexus
problems and assess and manage water risk.
Las Vegas, Nevada:
A Case Study in Water Management
Las Vegas, Nevada:
A Case Study in Water Management
• Water use on the “strip” uses only 3% of the
water budget due to recycling and water
efficiency measures.
• Water use by residents has decreased from 650
gallons/day to 75 gallons/day.
• Incentives to customers to remove grass
• Raised prices for infrastructure
improvements.
• Water recycling efforts
• Leak prevention programs
• More can be done
• Implement more indoor conservation
methods – installing water efficient fixtures
and appliances could reduce water use in
home by 40%

Managing the water and energy challenge at a national scale: The US perspective, by Kelly A. Kryc from the U.S. Department of State

  • 1. Managing the water and energy challenge at a national scale: The U.S. perspective Kelly A. Kryc Water and Power Advisor U.S. Department of State
  • 2. U.S. Water Rights Policy Water considered a common resource in the United States – No national policy Two systems of water law: 1. Prior Appropriation doctrine in western States – “first in time, first in right” • Reflects scarcity of water • Rigid in allocating new users water 2. Riparian doctrine in the eastern States – water belongs to the land owner for reasonable use • Reflects abundance of water • Vague, no means to protect certain uses
  • 4. Energy-Water Nexus Policy Options  Get data. We need to understand better the problem, the connections, and the impacts by generating, using, and openly sharing improved sources of data.  Deploy technology. We can implement existing, innovative, offthe-shelf technologies that promote energy and water efficiency, use non-traditional sources of water for energy production and generation, or create water and energy from waste.  Work together. Energy and water decision-makers must work together to ensure that decisions made by one sector don’t impact the other. We can help by strengthening institutions and establishing mechanisms for joint planning and development across sectors.  Use incentives. Incentives are an effective tool to encourage conservation of water and energy. We can start working to create policy and regulatory frameworks that strengthen local capacity and enable businesses to serve as a catalyst for change.

  • 7. Las Vegas, Nevada: A Case Study in Water Management • Water use on the “strip” uses only 3% of the water budget due to recycling and water efficiency measures. • Water use by residents has decreased from 650 gallons/day to 75 gallons/day. • Incentives to customers to remove grass • Raised prices for infrastructure improvements. • Water recycling efforts • Leak prevention programs • More can be done • Implement more indoor conservation methods – installing water efficient fixtures and appliances could reduce water use in home by 40%
